compression spring

I am using WF 3. I need to learn how to make a compression spring. Then I need it to compress it once it is in the assembly. How can this be done? I have figured out how to make the helical sweep but I can't figure out how to put an extra half turn on the ends. thanks

Here is a tutorial on springs: http://www.proengineertips.com/assembly/tutorial-spring-make-flexible-in-pro-e-assembly.html You'll need to create a new feature for the half turns, use a spline to sweep the ends. Hope this helps Rob ><>
